Yeah, would be nice... it's still a mystery as to what they meant at the first announcement about "several years between recharging" ?

Any links to this?

Interesting. I initially wasn't going to check out that link - I had presumed this was a division of a Carol Shelby company - and how wrong I was....It seems very wrong to me for them to use that name, especially in this industry - but then I grew up in the Shelby glory days.

Ya, the guy who founded the company a few years ago, his name is Jared Shelby, no relation. They prefer to be known as SSC.

No one seems to know about SSC strangely, because they have the record for fastest road going production car.
